Pulau Langkawi is the main island of a cluster of 99
islands tucked
away off the coast in the northern tip of Peninsula Malaysia. An island resort
for
the entire family, a romantic escapade for honeymooners, a heaven for
water sports enthusiasts and a sanctuary for sun worshippers.Another attraction of the island is its ‘Duty Free’ status.

The flattish southern half of Langkawi Island is where the airport and
Kuah town are
located while the north features a hilly spine clad in verdant
rainforest and rubber plantations. The east coast is fringed by dense
mangrove swamps and limestone hills. It is in the north that Langkawi
comes alive and nature is at its most vibrant.

With a population tickling 60,000, things are predictably slow and
unhurried. Langkawi’s beaches while not the finest in Asia, are pretty
decent
with a few white sand stretches to rival any.

Located on
the south-eastern part of the island, Kuah is Langkawi's main town
and and the transit point for ferries from the mainland and Penang
anchor.
